NEW YORK — -- A U-Haul driver is in custody after allegedly striking eight people in a"violent rampage" in multiple locations in Brooklyn, New York, on Monday, according to NYPD Commissioner Keechant Sewell.
The driver was identified by police sources as 62-year-old Weng Sor. He allegedly screamed that he wanted to die as he sped off and led police on a brief chase, according to a law enforcement official and a local councilman. "It was an in-town rental, meaning the equipment was supposed to be returned to the location from which it was dispatched," U-Haul said."Our customers provide valid identification/driver's license, valid form of payment, and any additional forms of meaningful assurance our rental agents deem necessary to try to make certain our equipment will be returned in proper condition, and at the stipulated time and place. These criteria must be met before a transaction occurs.
